Harris Aides Worried She’ll Be ‘Handcuffed’ by Mic Rules

“Kamala Harris had planned to object, fact-check and directly question Donald Trump while he was speaking during their debate next week. But now, with rules just finalized to mute the candidates when their opponents speaks, campaign officials said Harris advisers are scrambling to rewrite their playbook,” Politico reports. “Harris and her team — holed up in Pittsburgh for a multi-day debate camp — wanted unmuted microphones so that the vice president could lean on her prosecutorial background, confronting the former president in the same way she laced into some of Trump’s Supreme Court nominees and Cabinet members during Senate hearings.” “Instead, four Harris campaign officials argued that she will be ‘handcuffed’ by the rules, which were negotiated by President Joe Biden’s team earlier this summer.” This sounds like an attempt to downplay expectations.
